In the early 1950s, Anne Morrow Lindbergh—writer, pilot, mother of five, and wife to aviator Charles Lindbergh—spent two weeks alone in a small cottage on Florida’s Captiva Island. During this trip she collected shells, cooked simple meals, and wrote about the trappings of modernity and the search for simplicity. Although this was before cell phones, the internet, and social media, her insights are just as relevant today.
